How to store and care for your wig to make it last longer
How to store your precious wig to make it last longer
It's August, and the days are getting hotter and hotter. It's better to spend time indoors, but staying outdoors for long periods of time can be difficult. Be careful of heat stroke. Last month, we introduced some ways to enjoy wigs comfortably even in the summer, but we often hear comments like ``wigs are hot after all'' and ``wigs are kept in the closet.''
As summer ends and fall begins, Halloween approaches. Some people may want to temporarily put their wigs on hold until then. However, wigs are essentially consumable items. It is a very delicate item that deteriorates quickly if proper care and storage methods are not followed.
We'll show you how to properly store your wig during the summer so it doesn't lose its shape or get damaged when you use it during the Halloween season. How you clean up and maintain your wig after use will greatly affect the lifespan of your wig. Here are some tips on how to keep your precious wig for a long time.
How to store your wig
Avoid storing it as is.
The first thing to consider is how to store it. There are ways to store your wig using a special pouch or wig net, but avoid storing it away after use. After use, first brush to remove dust and arrange the ends of your hair. At this time, it is important to brush the hair from the ends. If you brush from the roots, the hair will get tangled, making it difficult to use, and causing dust and dirt to grow. Be careful not to apply too much force when brushing. This will cause damage to the wig. If the tangled parts are difficult to unravel, you may need to use a special spray or apply force, but be careful. However, you need to be careful as the hair may fall out. Once hair falls out, it will not come back, so be careful when handling it.
Removes moisture and prevents deformation
Moisture is the enemy of wigs. Humidity can make your hair frizzy and unkempt. To prevent moisture, first of all, "breathability" is important. These days, many stores come with a net when you buy a wig, but there is a way to put it in the net to ensure ventilation. However, this is not a problem for short hair such as short wigs, but for long full wigs, the ends of the hair may be damaged if stored in a net. Use a wig stand to ensure proper ventilation. A wig stand is an item that allows you to keep your wig in shape while wearing it. Storing it in a well-ventilated place will further improve ventilation. Another effective way to prevent moisture is to use newspaper. Rolling it into the appropriate size and placing it inside the wig will help remove moisture and prevent it from losing its shape. You can store it with a net over it. We recommend using a wig stand for long wigs, but if you have short wigs, please try it.
Wigs are extremely delicate products that can be easily damaged by moisture, dirt, and tangled hair. However, with proper care, it can last an amazingly long time. Some people may think that wigs are consumables and should be replaced when they wear out, but we recommend that you practice proper storage methods on a daily basis to avoid situations where you can no longer wear them. As an important item, please make sure that it can be used for as long as possible.
